Madrid university offers young Afghan refugees prospect of a future in Spain

Posted date: 31 Mar 2022

Nasratullah Jabarkhil fled Afghanistan to start a new life in Spain as a student at a university where he can choose what he wants to study.

"Either Law or Computer Engineering. I like Law because it would allow me to integrate well in the country as I would learn the rules and the legislation here. I also like Computer Engineering because I've always liked technology," Jabarkhil told Euronews.

Five years ago, the Camilo José Cela University became the first in Spain to welcome young people from areas of conflict.

This year, the 'Integra' programme has allowed 40 Afghans to start a course that will help them in their professional life, starting with language lessons.

"I would like to speak Spanish because I need to work," said Nasir Rahimi, another Afghan student at the university.
